Dancing Declared a Sin.

The political contest is not the only
one that is receiving attention here at
present, SAYS a Beaver. Pa, special to
the Pittsburg Dispatch. There is an
other, and one that is likely to stay for
some time. 1t is nothing more nor less
than a fight between the ministers of
the various churches and dancing
class recently organized here. The
class held its first meeting on Friday
night of last week, was largely
attended and promised to be most
pleasant enjoyment for the young folks
during the coming winter. On Sunday
a number of the young people who had
identified themselves with the class
were spoken to by their respective
ministers. and the sinfulneSS of dancing
was explained to them. and they were
told in plain terms that it was strictly
forbidden by the rules of the church,
and that they must at once sever their
connection with the class.
The row which this kicked up may
easily be imagined. and the ministers
saw that different measures would have
to be adopted in order to bring the
young people to time. Yesterday and
to-day the parents of the young folks
have been enlisted in the warfare
dSdlAlSl jlC udAiCIIS Cldoos 1tCd OOH 1liA-
brie, of the United Presbyterian church,
is rOundIy criticised by many of the
young people for the active part taken
by him in the opposition. His. two
daughters were among the first 10 join
the class, and were instrumental in get
ting others to join. What effect the
church opposition will have remains for
next Friday night TO reveal. The young
men threaten that if the ministers break
up the dancing class they (the young
mem will attend church at Bridgewater
and Rochester, virtually bOycOtting the

JEFF Davis Bed of Roses.

Elberton (Ga) Leader.
A GAINESVILLE lady related to us this
week a bit of unwritten Confederate
history. Away back in the sixties.
when the struggles between the people
of the North and those of the South were
raging upon the field of gore and glory,
jefferson Davis was being tossed upon
the waves of adversely and blown about
by every contrary wind, while millions
of loyal SouthernerS prayed and worked
for him and his cause. In those
trying days lady of wealth and refine
ment lived in Augusta, Ga, only short
distance from where the Hill monument
now stands, which Mr.. Davis saw un-
yelled. This lady cultivated yard of
beautiful flowers of various kinds, and
once when the summer roses blO0med
and wasted their odOr on the desert air,
she gathered them and made for her
honOred chieftain literal bed of roses.
This incident has never appeared in
print, but such devotion on the part of
Southern w0manhoOd to cause in
which her dear ones sacrificed their
lives is worthy of narration. The sOlace
of such wOman'S sympathy must have
cheered the president of dying infant
nation even if he never slept on the bed
of roses made by tender and loving
hands.

Vie { 10 b Hou<e

bought a good library for the boys, Mr..
Stickney leading tile movement with
goOd-SiZed check of his own. All the
latest periodicals and several daily pa
pers are always on the reading tables.
and the library shelves contain good
supply of reading matter of a character
that will interest any vigorouS-minded
wide-awake railroad man.
The building is a handsome three
story brick, stone trimmings, with Win
dows of Venetian and cathedral glass,
and of pleasing and striking style of
architecture. There is only one Ell
trance to the building, which is reached
by flight of broad steps, covered by
generous porch. On each side of the
entrance there are cloak-roomS, where
the men can change their clothing if
they desire before going into the main
part of the building. On the first floor
front is a large and cheerful sitting room
brightly furnished, the floor covered
with thick rugs. In the center of the
room is big, old-faShioned fireplace of
red thing, i'll which there is kept roar
ing fire every cold day, where the be-
lated brakeman who has been balancing
himself on top of slippery freight car
all night can stand and watch the steam
from his wet clothes ascend in grateful
wreatls to the ceiling. Next to the sit
ting room is the library, room as large
as the first, also well furnished and sup
piled with writing material, tables, easy
chairs, ard a lounge or two. There is
also crate in this room, and broad
window of Venetian glass looks out
over the well-kept lawn at the side of
the clubhouse. Directly back of
the library are the bathrooms,
which are fitted up with the
latest improved porcelain bath tubs,
supplied with hot and cold water and
every convenience necessary. Here the
tired railroad man puts himself to soak
after his trip, and removes the dust and
mud and CRIME which have accumulated
on his person several inches deep dur
